Dilithio-2,5-dimethyl-2,4-hexadiene (4a) rearranges to the cross-conjugated 2,5-dimethylhexadienediyl dianion 11a. A mechanistic investigation proves the intermolecularity of this rearrangement, which is also observed when starting from 4b. The 3-lithio-2,5-dimethylhexadienyl anion 10a with

โฆ Synopsis
C5 to C2 position migratiw of 2-trialkylsilyl and thiophctgd groups have bus observed upon lithhth at the Cs-position of cxxqwkg C2-subwituted l-muhylixnkko~. Double brominelithium exchange of I-mcthyL2$sle (5) affords a facile, qluwthive and uuequivocal synthc& of 2,5_dilithio_l~l-~~ (4). Raction of 4 with ol~t equivaknt of DMP occurs selectively at the cs position to give I-methylimKkolc-5caliJoxaahyde (1). In the purse of our synthesis of (+)-pilosininc we became ilaracd ill akznative routes for the important starthg mat&al, I-methyl-inlidazole-s-carboxcarboxaldehyde (1). Qassically, 1 is lnqarcd by a five step procedure starting fbm sarcosine methylester?
